Fourth Sunday of Easter
Good Shepherd Sunday
World Day of Prayer for Vocations
"The Good Shepherd" (Catacomb of Priscilla, Rome, 3rd Century)
Dear Friends in Christ,
This Fourth Sunday of Easter is also known as Good Shepherd Sunday because of the Scripture readings and Mass prayers appointed for this day in the sacred liturgy. Today’s Communion Antiphon, for example, proclaims that “The Good Shepherd has risen, who laid down his life for his sheep and willingly died for his flock, alleluia.”
The Latin word for shepherd is pastor, and this reveals why the Church asks us to pray for more priests on Good Shepherd Sunday. The call to the priesthood comes from God, and the Lord has promised always to provide shepherds for his people. Through the Prophet Jeremiah, the Lord promised Israel: “I will give you shepherds after my own heart.” (Jer 3:15) But he also asks us to seek the gift of pastors in prayer: “The harvest is plentiful, but the labourers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the LORD of the harvest to send out labourers into his harvest.” (Mt 9:37-38)
In Africa, in South America, and in Oceania, the number of young men offering themselves for priestly formation is on the rise, in some cases a dramatic rise. As you know already, however, this is not the case in Europe and in North America – the “developed” world – and the disparity points to one of the chief difficulties for young men being called to priestly formation today: that sometimes the Call is not heard because of the noise in which we live. This “noise” takes many shapes (e.g. desire for a lucrative career, fear of loneliness, the presence of so many options that making any choice is difficult, etc.), but whatever the source of the noise, if the man being called never hears the call, we may assume he’ll never find his place and purpose in life. But even worse than such noise is the failure to live the Christian life with a full understanding of what a radical way of life it is.
The key to hearing and answering the Call is that the man must understand what it means to be a Christian, to be a disciple of the Lord Jesus. The radical thing is not forsaking marriage and giving one’s life to the Church; the radical thing is being baptized and giving one’s life to Jesus Christ, knowing that this means following him in the Way of the Cross.
You know, where the Christian faith is truly believed and steadfastly lived, young men will step forward and offer themselves to the Church for lifelong service in the priesthood. And the place in which that Christian faith must be believed and lived is the Christian Family: both the natural family of parents and children and the spiritual family of the parish church. It is only in a family that the title Father makes sense, whether for a husband or a priest, and so it is in the family of the Church that men learn to understand, revere and be drawn towards fatherhood.

PS - I'll be away this weekend at the Project Rachel retreat and I'm grateful that Fr. Price will celebrate the weekend Masses. Many thanks to Julianna & Claudia, Colleen, Carol, Don & Noreen and Jane for preparing casseroles for the Saturday evening dinner. Please pray that those women attending experience healing and God's mercy. Debbie Morocco writes, "The isolation and silence of these past few years was well-known to the Project Rachel retreatants we have served. They've told us repeatedly about how much of their lives was lived in shame and silence because of a decision that lives with them still. It is a pain that cannot be denied, but which begins to be healed on a Project Rachel retreat. We offer welcome, non-judgment, and a way to return to life and the Christian community."

Requesting Mass Intentions
"Almighty God, we pray that your angel may take this sacrifice to your altar in heaven. Then, as we receive from this altar the sacred body and blood of your Son, let us be filled with every grace and blessing."
Requesting a Mass Intention is easy! Just contact our secretary Pauline Davis (613.472.2220 or SacredHeart.MM@archkingston.ca) or better yet, use the mass intention envelopes found in the vestibule, fill it out and put in the $20 offering and place it in the collection basket at Mass. We will do our best to have the Mass offered on the date requested.
This Easter season we thank everyone who has supported our parishes with their time, talent and financial contributions. As the pace of life speeds up, you may find electronic giving a most welcome way to make contributions.

Anointing of the Sick
Those Catholics confronted with serious illness, chronic illness, or surgery are invited to request the Sacrament of Anointing by calling Fr. Justin for an appointment. We also now have a wonderful Pastoral Care team made up of generous parishioners who can bring Holy Communion to the sick and those confined to their own homes. Again, if you are someone or know of someone who would like to receive Sacraments at their home, please contact the office @ 613.472.2220 more information.
By using the white Flower Sponsor envelopes (located in the narthex), a one time donation of $40 will provide flowers for the sanctuary and shrines, and you'll also get a Mass intention included in that. So a great deal if you think about it! The churches are beautifully decorated in large part to your flower donations. And when you see in the Flocknotes Masses being offered "For the X Family Intentions" - usually those are from the Family flower sponsor. Thanks to Shirley Gauvreau, Brenda Poirier, Iris Doyle & Joanne Forestell for always doing such a splendid arrangement of the flowers! Thank you for your support!

- We are featured in the most recent edition of the Catholic Register. ... actually we are the cover story. There are a limited number of copies in the narthex.
Just a sampling of parishioners who attended the anniversary Mass and reception and brought back our replica Icon which was blessed by the Archbishop (from left to right, Andrea, Diane, Willie, Debbie, Cathy)
Recommendations, Links & Random Thoughts
- Hard to believe this appeared in The New Yorker! Very cool piece about a revolutionary new Catholic trade school in Ohio called the College of Saint Joseph the Worker. A good read before the the feast day of the same on May 1st.
- Outstanding piece of Just War and moral certainty. Please read.
I highly recommend this latest round table by some very intelligent and wise gentlemen
- Welcome New Parishioners! Extend a warm welcome to our new parishioners: Serge & Lynda Bugelli, who moved to Madoc from Trenton. They previously attended St. Peter in Chains.
- First Confessions: This coming Tuesday the children will make their First Confessions. Please keep our young penitents in your prayers this week as they examine their consciences and learn the Act of Contrition and prepare to sacramentally confess their sins for the first time.
- FYI, the traditional rite of Blessing of Water to make Holy Water produces exactly what it says. The salt and water is exorcized, demons are expelled, and protection is provided to those who use it. Most importantly the water and salt is actually blessed. (Sadly, when one examines the new rite of “blessing,” he will discover it actually does not bless anything! It simply requests that the water “renews” the person who uses it. So lame. No Sign of the Cross is included in the ritual, and no blessing actually takes place!) For this reason, for maximum and full spiritual effect, for actually blessed and powerful holy water, the water in our fonts and basins is blessed with the traditional Catholic formula; this official blessing used by priests throughout the centuries. Feel free to fill your jars & bottles with this.
- IF YOU LOVE MUSIC JOIN US!
- Wednesday April 29th from 6-7pm
- All parishioners are invited to join the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Choir Practices, on Wednesday Evenings from 5-6 pm at our Church in Madoc and the NEW from 6-7pm at our Church in Marmora.
- Some of the local Parishioners are unable to attend the Parish Choir Practice at Sacred Heart of Mary, Madoc and Sundays are busy family times for the Singers of Jesus.
- If there is enough interest, we will have a simple music practice for the Parish Choir and the Singers of Jesus, so families and all ages welcome!
- We are always looking for Choir Members, come and see what you think! No obligation
- It was wonderful to have Mrs. Kerby's students SHJ clean up the church and cemetery grounds yesterday on Earth Day. Thank you children!
- A vote on Bill C-218 is expected very soon in the House of Commons. This bill would prevent the expansion of Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) to include mental illness as a sole underlying condition. Without this safeguard, assisted death for mental illness alone is scheduled to become legal in March 2027. Individuals facing mental-health challenges need care, support, and hope—not access to assisted death. Bill C-218 protects vulnerable Canadians by ensuring that mental illness is not classified as a “grievous and irremediable” condition under MAiD, while leaving existing provisions unchanged. Because a vote is imminent, your voice matters now more than ever. The Liberals are refusing to pass it and want their own bill apparently. I’m concerned they will repeal or delay MAiD for mental illness but add in advance requests. I don’t trust the libs so it’s our only option to keep pushing for now. Please take one minute to click this link and send a message to our MP (and fellow parishioner!) urging her to support Bill C-218.
This is an excellent interview with Dr. Ramona Coelho about MAiD. Everything is covered. Touches on the legislation, on the lack of hope that is instilled in people, that MAiD has become the 5 top causes of death in Canada.
- Don't forget that the commemoration and blessing of the newly installed statue of Our Lady of Lourdes (and St. Bernadette) takes place next Sunday, May 3rd. The 9am Mass will be in Marmora and the 11am Mass in Madoc, followed by a reception in O'Neill Parish Hall to celebrate and thank those who helped with making this happen. Everyone is invited. What a way to kick off the Marian month! So save the date and try and make the 11am Mass next Sunday in Madoc and stick around for the special luncheon reception.
The That Man Is You (TMIY) group had our final and 26th session of the semester last Friday. It was a fantastic series with the theme "Worthy of the Call". Bitter sweet, as we don't resume until the Fall. A special thank you to Mike Neuendorf for organizing us each week, and for Jason Reck for providing us with a delicious breakfast week in and out. Our theme next Fall is "Apostles of the New Springtime"

This Sunday April 26, our own Colleen MacAlister is to be inducted to Madoc's Community Recognition Wall on at the Kiwanis Club of Madoc. Colleen has been director of SAN Damiano Foundations Youth Centre in Madoc for over 30 years. At Foundations, Colleen and her dedicated staff of volunteers tend to the needs of 50-60 students a day during the school lunch hour. Students meet in a safe and friendly environment to share a free meal and some fellowship and socializing. Foundations is non-funded but exists from generous donations and fundraising efforts and by a large and faithful staff of volunteers. Colleen also runs a a youth centre in Tweed and Trenton. She also often takes her guitar and sings to clients in several retirement and nursing homes. Please join us to celebrate with Colleen and her staff of volunteers. Gala kicks off at 1pm with a social hour followed by presentations at 2pm. Tickets $10 at Bush Furniture, Team Hair Design and Foley Tour and Travel.
Once again, our friends from Our Lady of Mercy parish in Bancroft will be hiring a bus for the annual March for Life in Ottawa this year on Thursday, May 14th. Let's try and fill the bus this year! If you can't go but would like to support the March, please consider making a donation to offset the cost of the bus ($1750). So save the date and reserve a spot by calling Kathy Tripp @ 613.332.9383. The bus will be picking pilgrims up at the Tim Hortons on Hwy 7/62 around 8:45-9am on the 14th.

A Message from Fr. Price about
Our Mother of Perpetual Help
The Icon of the Mother of Perpetual Help was produced in Greece. One legend claimed it was painted by St. Luke, but that seems unlikely. The picture has been in Rome since 1499 and is in the church dedicated to St. Alphonsus Liguori. The order he founded, the Redemptorists, have promoted devotion to Our Mother of Perpetual Help since 1866.
I've celebrated a Novena to the Mother of Perpetual Help every year for 56 years. I will do so this year too on the Fridays and Sundays of May. I hope you will join me!

Update: I know that there are many who have expressed interesting in joining us, but are (understandably) taking a wait-and-see approach to register. But if you're seriously interested in this pilgrimage, please secure your spot by completing the registration forms and returning them with a copy of your passport. Note that we will not charge any payments until we know for sure we are going (however, anyone intending to pay by credit card must complete the credit card section). But it's important to secure your spot because there's very high demand and you don't want to miss this opportunity. We're already over 50% booked, and should a stable ceasefire be negotiated and hold in the next few weeks, there will be an explosion of demand.
PILGRIMAGE
TO THE HOLY LAND
With Fr. Justin & Fr. Price
Have you ever longed to visit the Holy Land during your lifetime, to follow in the footsteps of Our Blessed Lord, to pray, kneel and kiss the soil where his sacred feet trod? Would you like the Sacred Scriptures to be opened up in new and exciting ways? Do you want to experience His Mercy? Do you want your family to be converted? Do you expect a healing for you or someone you love? Do you desire to make atonement for your past sins? Or simply to give thanks to God for all the blessings He's given you?
Then let us go up to Jerusalem!
Fr. Justin & Fr. Price are thrilled to invite you to the pilgrimage that transforms lives more than any other: Walking in the Footsteps of Jesus in the Holy Land, October 5–15, 2026, with Fr. Justin and Fr. Price. This is no ordinary trip. It is a living encounter with the very places where the Word became flesh. Bring the Bible and the earliest days of the Catholic faith to life. Daily Mass. Meet other great people. Catholics and protestants welcome! Spots filling fast!
We have carefully designed this itinerary with one goal above all: deepening your personal relationship with the Savior. That’s why we have built in generous time at each holy site – plenty of time for silent prayer, reflection, and lingering before and after Mass. No rushing from one place to the next. We want you to be able to sit, pray, and let the Lord speak to you in the very places where he once walked. You have no idea how many sites I cut because I wanted a slower, more relaxed and meditative pace. And beware: the terrain of the Holy Land is not easy, and if you thought the walking in Rome was a bit of a challenge, well...
Many of you have told me how much you missed the Holy Land during the pandemic years, and how the war has made returning seem uncertain. Now is the perfect time: the region is open, safe for pilgrims, and the spiritual hunger is stronger than ever. Come and see for yourself – walk where our Blessed Lord walked, touch the stones he touched, and let the Holy Spirit renew you in ways that words cannot describe. Many of you know that the Holy Land is my favourite place in the world, and I've been longing to get back there after the last 4 planned trips have been cancelled.
The detailed day-by-day itinerary and registration form are attached. Please review them, share it with your friends and family, pray about it over Christmas, and let me or Edgar know as soon as possible if you’d like to join us. It will be an unforgettable grace-filled experience.
Because of the physical rigours of making a trip of this kind, all pilgrims must be in general good health and able to walk up stairs and across rough ground without assistance. This trip is not a vacation, and we are not looking for rest or recreation. A pilgrimage is a journey of faith that entails penance, conversion, reconciliation, and restoration, and each part of the journey must therefore be marked by a spirit of renunciation of self in order to be conformed more completely to the Lord Jesus.
"The main point of Christianity was this: that Nature is not our mother: Nature is our sister. We can be proud of her beauty, since we have the same father; but she has no authority over us; we have to admire, but not to imitate."
